Find all threads posted by

Profile-postings-find all threads posted by

It's hiding at the bottom on the right but it's the best/only way to find all the stories posted by someone in the creative section. I've explained this process to people more times than I can count. People even ask me stuff like "did they delete your old stories?" This tells me it's a design issue that could be improved. If it were me, I've put "find all threads posted by" up there next to postings. Alternatively you could put a big in your face noticed about the location and necessity of that semi hidden link, or just move that link to the top, not bottom of the page. Well that's my two cents .

Oh, you're talking about ways to make the feature more discoverable! Okay then.

Sufficient Velocity includes "find all posts by" and "find all threads by" in their version of the user pop-up. Pretty sure that's just an XF2 feature. Which means, 1) that it should happen "for free" when QQ eventually updates to XF2 (it's been "in the pipeline" for A While Now), and 2) that it's almost certainly not going to be touched untill after the XF2 update (because it would be a silly use of effort).

(SV also includes "find all stories" and "find all quests" in that drop-down, but that might be an add-on that SV uses rather than default XF2 behavior.)

Also:

This feature can also be gotten in the "informational" tab of profile posts. And there should be a way to do it using just the search interface, but I seem to recall that not working quite the way I wanted it to.

Click to shrink...

SB also has it so it's probably an at least semi-default thing.
